I like to have fun on elevators.
Was in one yesterday when a girl went beside me.
As she passed, she said, “Excuse me.”
I said, “NO”

Everyone turned to look.
While chuckling, I asked her, “ Isn’t that the appropriate response?”
She, along with everyone else, got a smile on their faces.
It broke the ice, and made for a friendly ride up.

firebird,
She WAS one of those type females, but the wife was with me.

You left off one: why does everyone turn around to face the door when they board the elevator?

Saw a show once where someone would wait to be the last to get on the elevator, then stand facing everyone instead of turning around to face the door, just to see how folks would react. He made more than a few folks uncomfortable.
